4A CONTROL SYSTEM
ENGINE CONTROL UNIT
Check the engine control unit terminal voltages with
a voltmeter.
Caution
a) Warm up the engine before checking the
control unit.
b) If the proper voltage is not obtained, check
the wiring, connections and finally, check
the component.

Replacement
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the front console covers (right or left).
3. Disconnect the connectors from the control unit.
4. Remove and replace the control unit.
INHIBITOR SWITCH
Inspection
1. Verify that the starter operates with the ignition
switch at START position in
P
and N positions only.
2. Check that the back-up lights illuminate when R
position selected and the ignition switch is ON.
3. If not as specified, check the following:
(1) Jack up the vehicle and support it with safety
stands.
(2) Disconnect the inhibitor switch connector.
(3) Check continuity of the switch with an
ohmmeter.
